Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 4/5 --
Watered down version of the play, The Children's Hour, is still compelling thanks to the performers.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Rating: 3/5 --
Overheated but well-acted adaptation of Lillian Hellman's play The Children's Hour.
Nick's Flick Picks
While it will take a lot of Shirley Temple to take away the taste of Mary Tilford, little Miss [Bonita] Granville's performance isn't a thing to be missed.

Maclean's Magazine
Rating: B+ --
Despite limitations imposed by the Production Code (lesbianism!), this first version of Hellman's play is more powerful than the 1961 remake, also directed by William Wyler.

Description by OLDIES.com:
College friends Karen Wright (Merle Oberon) and Martha Dobie (Miriam Hopkins) run a thriving rural Massachusetts girls' school. Karen is in love with local doctor Joe Cardin (Joel McCrea), and they plan to marry soon. Then an incorrigible, vindictive student tells a shocking fib... and the lives and futures of Karen, Martha and Joe come crashing down in one of Hollywood's most gripping depictions of what writer Lillian Hellman simply called "the power of a lie."
